Rumor: Legacy of Kain Reboot?

A reader of Game Revolution stumbled across the possibility of a new Legacy of Kain game when taking part in an online survey.

"I'm part of a website where you get paid to take online surveys and today I took one that asked me what I thought about different possible names for a Legacy of Kain game," said user "daverabbit." "The four names were Obsidian Blood, Obsidian Sun, Dead Sun and Revenant. They also asked if the names sounded good alone or tagged with any of the Legacy of Kain/Soul Reaver/Blood Omen names used previously. Surveys I've taken in the past have had the product later show up on store shelves."

While a mention in an online survey isn't exactly confirmation that a new game is definitely on the way, a series reboot certainly wouldn't be unwelcome for many fans. And Square Enix's ownership of Crystal Dynamics would certainly put the Legacy of Kain series in good company, with new Tomb Raider and Deus Ex titles on the way from the publisher.

Smart money's on an announcement at E3 if there is anything to this rumor.
